OK, Bob, send me a print, just a 4x6. If it is as good as a good minilab print (I admit a good inkjet is better than a poor minilab print) I will admit it right here in front of the world. If it isn't I will say that too. Everybody says, you haven't seen my digital prints. I am tired of that, none I have seen are that good. Anybody can say they are, but the soup is in the tasting.
Challenge applies to anybody else that thinks their inkjet is photographic quality as well. By the way if you can see the halftone dots, don't bother to waste the postage.
